About Me

Hi, I’m married to my husband Nick and have 5 children…. 2 still live at home. I have 5 grandchildren. I live in sanderstead just off Rectory Park. I’ve been registered for many years and have gained 3 ofsted outstanding ratings the latest being feb 20 just before the pandemic . I have a large detached house with a playroom and 2 other rooms all used for minding plus a large garden.

My Experience

I’m a trained qualified nursery nurse but didn’t like the restraints of a nursery setting. I’ve been a registered childminder for over 20 yrs. We visit many places and enjoy our time outside exploring. The children experience lots of different play activities while in my care. I access regular training in all areas of childcare to ensure I’m up to date.

My Qualifications

I have a cache level 3 and attend regular training to keep my knowledge updated .
